They have adult ferrets. But training them to bite isn't that hard. They are well behaved usually (they do like to climb, scratch and run around, and they like your company a lot and do miss you if you're gone for a while). They poo mostly in the right place, but not always. This also needs a bit of training.
The price is because they come from a legal ferret-farm and were orginally imported from Denmark.
Plus I believe the price include the first doctor visit for you for innoculation when the time's right. They are also castrated so breeding is out of the question (you can maybe ask for one which isn't, but they usually don't have them in store).
Because for reasons unknown there is a very small chance they still pass away (as any animal does who gets sick), they are insured (surprise! surprise!) for the first 6 months that you have the ferret.
Luckily our ferrets are extremely healthy, energetic, love to eat and play and didn't die on us, so we didn't need the insurance.
Important: don't let them run outside as they don't really come back. You can buy a leash if you want to walk them (needs a bit of training). But walking them outside is very dangerous in China because of a very active and prominent virus that effects animals and makes them stop eating completely (I've seen a lot of dogs who suffer from this at the vets). If this happens your ferret may die within a couple days (just like dogs do). The only thing then is to take it to a vet asap nearly daily for medicine and treatment I suppose (don't even know if they can be treated). We keep ours inside but still they get dusty and dirty so they need a bath occasionally in a small basin. They need a few times to get used to it but tend to love it and can't wait for another bath (so they do like to run into your bathroom, so cover any small holes they can crawl into like a drain). Cages are good for keeping them (we got a cage from taobao which is about 1.5 meter (5 feet) tall and it's big enough to release their energy. But they sometimes just want to and need to run for a while. We use our studyroom for that and close the doors.
Ferrets are quite rare in China and a bit of a novelty too yes. Lots of famous people have them in the world, so it's a bit of an image things too. But I like this store because you can always call them and ask questions. If you don't know how to do something (cut their nails, clean their ear, give them a bath, etc.), you can just go visit them and they show you right there in the store how to do things, or you just call or QQ them.

Posted byOf what I have seen the problem lies in the amount of sugar used in cooking rather than the amount of junkfood consumed (which tends to be very high in salt). People don't like too much sugar as in pure sugar or sugar in drinks and snacks, yet if you see how much they use in cooking (they put in bread, sticky rice milk, etc. too), my goodness how much that is.
Many dishes people like to eat are very high in sugar content. Orange Beef has a ton of sugar as far as I know. But it's soo tasty!
